Class/Module Index

RDoc::Servlet

This is a WEBrick servlet that allows you to browse ri documentation.

You can show documentation through either `ri –server` or, with RubyGems 2.0 or newer, `gem server`. For ri, the server runs on port 8214 by default. For RubyGems the server runs on port 8808 by default.

You can use this servlet in your own project by mounting it on a WEBrick server:

require 'webrick'

server = WEBrick::HTTPServer.new Port: 8000

server.mount '/', RDoc::Servlet

If you want to mount the servlet some other place than the root, provide the base path when mounting:

server.mount '/rdoc', RDoc::Servlet, '/rdoc'

Attributes

asset_dirs[R]

Maps an asset type to its path on the filesystem

options[R]

An RDoc::Options instance used for rendering options

Public Class Methods

new(server, stores, cache, mount_path = nil) click to toggle source

Creates a new WEBrick servlet.

Use mount_path when mounting the servlet somewhere other than /.

server is provided automatically by WEBrick when mounting. stores and cache are provided automatically by the servlet.

 
               # File rdoc/servlet.rb, line 59
def initialize server, stores, cache, mount_path = nil
  super server

  @cache      = cache
  @mount_path = mount_path
  @stores     = stores

  @options = RDoc::Options.new
  @options.op_dir = '.'

  darkfish_dir = nil

  # HACK dup
  $LOAD_PATH.each do |path|
    darkfish_dir = File.join path, 'rdoc/generator/template/darkfish/'
    next unless File.directory? darkfish_dir
    @options.template_dir = darkfish_dir
    break
  end

  @asset_dirs = {
    :darkfish   => darkfish_dir,
    :json_index =>
      File.expand_path('../generator/template/json_index/', __FILE__),
  }
end

Public Instance Methods

asset(generator_name, req, res) click to toggle source

Serves the asset at the path in req for generator_name via res.

 
               # File rdoc/servlet.rb, line 89
def asset generator_name, req, res
  asset_dir = @asset_dirs[generator_name]

  asset_path = File.join asset_dir, req.path

  if_modified_since req, res, asset_path

  res.body = File.read asset_path

  res.content_type = case req.path
                     when /css$/ then 'text/css'
                     when /js$/  then 'application/javascript'
                     else             'application/octet-stream'
                     end
end

do_GET(req, res) click to toggle source

GET request entry point. Fills in res for the path, etc. in req.

 
               # File rdoc/servlet.rb, line 108
def do_GET req, res
  req.path.sub!(/^#{Regexp.escape @mount_path}/, '') if @mount_path

  case req.path
  when '/' then
    root req, res
  when '/rdoc.css', '/js/darkfish.js', '/js/jquery.js', '/js/search.js',

  when '/js/navigation.js', '/js/searcher.js' then
    asset :json_index, req, res
  when '/js/search_index.js' then
    root_search req, res
  else
    show_documentation req, res
  end
rescue WEBrick::HTTPStatus::Status
  raise
rescue => e
  error e, req, res
end

documentation_page(store, generator, path, req, res) click to toggle source

Fills in res with the class, module or page for req from store.

path is relative to the mount_path and is used to determine the class, module or page name (/RDoc/Servlet.html becomes RDoc::Servlet). generator is used to create the page.

 
               # File rdoc/servlet.rb, line 137
def documentation_page store, generator, path, req, res
  name = path.sub(/.html$/, '').gsub '/', '::'

  if klass = store.find_class_or_module(name) then
    res.body = generator.generate_class klass
  elsif page = store.find_text_page(name.sub(/_([^_]*)$/, '.\1')) then
    res.body = generator.generate_page page
  else
    not_found generator, req, res
  end
end

documentation_search(store, generator, req, res) click to toggle source

Creates the JSON search index on res for the given store. generator must respond to #json_index to build. req is ignored.

 
               # File rdoc/servlet.rb, line 153
def documentation_search store, generator, req, res
  json_index = @cache[store].fetch :json_index do
    @cache[store][:json_index] =
      JSON.dump generator.json_index.build_index
  end

  res.content_type = 'application/javascript'
  res.body = "var search_data = #{json_index}"
end

documentation_source(path) click to toggle source

Returns the RDoc::Store and path relative to mount_path for documentation at path.

 
               # File rdoc/servlet.rb, line 167
def documentation_source path
  _, source_name, path = path.split '/', 3

  store = @stores[source_name]
  return store, path if store

  store = store_for source_name

  store.load_all

  @stores[source_name] = store

  return store, path
end

error(exception, req, res) click to toggle source

Generates an error page for the exception while handling req on res.

 
               # File rdoc/servlet.rb, line 185
  def error exception, req, res
    backtrace = exception.backtrace.join "\n"

    res.content_type = 'text/html'
    res.status = 500
    res.body = <<-BODY
